Hi there,
Came across this wonderful forum hoping to solve or at least understand my issue.
Our company had purchased 8 Mori's (NV5000A's) and recently we've moved the assets to another plant.
We were told that in order to get the machines operable we needed to have Ellison come out and unlock the machines.
We've been told by Mori that this is a new requirement of the US government and that all future machine mfg's are moving to this. Have any of you heard of such rubbish and has anyone found a work around.
We as a company own all of the machines. There is no outstanding balance and we've already had the tech come out to unlock them. Due to some business changes, we want to move the machines around the shop floor to reconfigure our machining cell however as we've done more research, we've found that there is a small board in the electrical panel of the machine that houses a gyroscope so that if the machine is moved/tilted, it will lock out the machine.
We've made numerous calls to Mori and they refuse to give us the access codes to unlock them or bypass them.
Machining is not new to us. We have many types in our shop. Makino, Brother, Fadal, Okuma and now the Mori's however these Mori's are the only machines that have this lock out circuit.
